The Raticate wasn't happy when it appeared. "Were you the one who ratted me out to a Raticate earlier?" It squeaked and gritted its teeth. It was aggressive and ready for a fight! Ethan hadn't got a chance before the Claydol started levitating it.

"Huh? What are you talking about? I am just helping a fellow Raticate that's all. Now, where do you want to go?" Disco hummed and replied.

"LEMME OFF! YOU FILTHTY CRUSTED DIRTBAG!" The normal type protested, wiggling in the air despite being lifted. It swung its tail and flailed its arms.

Ethan commented, as if understanding the Raticate's protest. "Disco, let's put this one back on the ground, I don't think it wants the free lift." The ground type hummed understandingly, and placed the Ratiate back where it was.

Then, suddenly, a Pokeball burst out as a Gulpin appeared. "DID SOMEONE SAID FILTHY? IS IT BATH TIME? BATHE ME IN PIDGEOTTO VOMIT PLEASE?"

"Uhh.. There's no Pidgeotto around here, that I have seen so far." Disco replied, albeit not disgusted since it wasn't an organic Pokemon.

OOC:
Claydol use Psychic and then switch to Liquid Ooze Gulpin, it should survive unless crit

"Shut up! Just shut up! I will chomp you off! You blob of goo!" The Raticate aggressively clicked its teeth.

"Please don't eat me, I taste gross! And oh, so you're the filthy mouth! I bet you'll taste funny once I eat you!" The Gulpin argued back, not readying to back down. "I bet you'll taste good though!"

"You wish you'll eat me! Raticate is bad for you!" the normal type squeaked back. "But I should probably remove those nasty furs first. Blargh!" The Gulpin then ejected a blob of stinky purple substance from its mouth, a Sludge. The poison type was shorter than the Raticate, but somehow it was trying its best to aim at the Raticate. Worse case, it missed but the Raticate would step on it, it thought.

sludge, if win, evolve gulpin

The Gulpin ejected a blob of sludge at the Raticate's direction, making the rodent feeling nasty and nauseous. The normal type squeaked disgustedly. "EEWWW, GROSS! FINE, I WON'T EAT YOU! BUT DON'T YOU FOLLOW ME YOU STINKY MOUTH!" The normal type then scuttled away and went back to wherever it was hiding. With the Raticate gone, the Gulpin felt accomplished, and then glowed bright as it was preparing for an evolution. The poison type grew large, losing its head-fin and gained a moustache. Maybe it would be fitting for a gentleman connoisseur who would like to eat and then comment about every ingredient, or just someone who would like to look and to sound fancy.

The evolution had gathered the attention of a Swadloon, who revealed itself after admiring the poison type's evolution. "OOhh. Congratulations on your evolution! I want to evolve too! I have been stuck in this stage for a while."

The Claydol and Swalot looked at each other, and then back to the Swadloon. "We might be staying here for a little while, come train with us and we can help you reach your full potential!" The Swalot spoke, in a rather refined way to pronounce its words.

Ethan watched his Pokemon, wondering what they're trying to do with the Swadloon now, but he didn't want to intervene yet because he wasn't sure if this was an abandoned Pokemon or a stray one not identified yet on this route.

[Tarlar]

A dark, dark night, and suddenly a bright flash. The raticate twitched its whiskers and trotted in the direction to check it out.

Raticate [Lv 26] is attracted by all the light.
Weather will be Gusting (Tailwind)

Shiny: Eza5RujAp_1-421-42

[Tiki]

"Oh look, another Raticate." The Claydol spoke disappointedly as it spotted another rodent clicking its teeth and checking out what was going on. The psychic type was already getting tired of trying to give these Raticate free movement delivery, and the ground was drying up anyways. So, unless they mentioned it, the duo type would just pretend it wasn't giving such a free, generous service.

"Okay, I am ready to fight!" The Swadloon waddled over as it was ready to face the Raticate, but Disco had a different idea in mind.

"Uh, good initiative to face them head on. They're quite strong though. Let me get you some helpers." The ground type had a different idea in mind, to take a break from battling. Using its psychic power, it shook a little Pokeball on Ethan's pocket, and sent out Ratz, also a Raticate.

"HEY! Why am I out here? Who are we fighting?" Ratz cried out loud.

"Your cousins." Disco spoke sarcastically.

"They're not my cousins." Ratz glared back. "But I am on it!"

OOC:
Swadloon leads then switch to Raticate.

"Hey, um... We're just passing by, pal." Ratz spoke to the Raticate opposite of him. As the Toxic Orb was leaking poison to make him feel sick, he felt more powerful now to strike the next time he moved.

"Yeah, I know. I saw something glowing and then I was curious. Things don't normally glow here." The opponent Raticate replied.

"Ooh! That was our fella-in-training, the Swadloon over here. This fella wanted to evolve too!" Ratz responded.

"Well, I got my curiosity filled. I will go along now, I need to go back before I get yelled at." The other Raticate nervously chuckled.

"Well, see ya! Mind if I show off a move to the Swadloon before you go?" Ratz added, his body glowing with yellow aura as he prepared for a Facade.

"Yeah, yeah, I know the rules of battle. Just go for it." the other Raticate shrugged casually, waiting for the domesticated Raticte to do his thing.

[Tarlar]

Ratz obliverated the other raticate and gains (50*26) 1300 exp! (3485/4447)

self updated things

Ratz charged into the other Raticate with his body glowing yellow. The opponent rodent soon fell to the ground, and laid down for a bit before rolling onto its feet to get up. "Wow! That was a strong move! How did you do that?"

"The human I am traveling with. He taught me that. Interestingly when I don't feel good, I can be really aggressive when I am feeling like super sick." The domesticated Raticate explained, clicking its teeth fiercely as the poison waned.

"Wow, that's really cool!" The Raticate replied. "Well, I gotta go now. See you around! Don't train this fella too hard!"

"I'm just watching now, I won't be training that hard!" The Swadloon frowned and shrugged. It's hard to make big body motions when your whole body was wrapped up in a cocoon and ready to reach the next stage in life. "So, what am I learning next?"

"Let's see who wants a battle next." Ratz simply spoke, staring at the distance to look for opponents.

[Tarlar]

"Me! I am!" A voice called from the dark and another raticate, a little smaller than the one before came out of the dark. It's whiskers twitched excitedly.

Raticate [Lv 24] wants to be the next challenger
Weather will be Clear Skies (Clear)

Shiny: p_2LBpHFp_1-421-42

[Tiki]

"Hey," Ratz greeted the other Raticate. "We're teaching this Swadloon about battling so that they could reach their final evolution. Since you want to battle anyways, do you want to help out?"

"Okay, fine. What do you want me to do?" the opponent Raticate replied.

"Just stand here for now and think about how you'll fight?" Ratz clicked his teeth, wasn't sure how the other Raticate should be acting, other than actually prepare for the fight.

"First, you want to watch them and see how they move. You could figure out how fast or slow they are, and maybe if they'll hit you directly or from a distance, usually." Disco hummed, reminding everyone that it was still here and floating around.

The Swadloon observed briefly, and then made its statement. "Okay... Well, this one definitely looks fast."

"That's great, what else do you see?" The Swalot chimed in, twirling one whisker with its small hand and short arm.

"It's a Raticate?" the Swadloon asked, confused.

"No, like what else? Just look at it and think."

"Are you done looking at me? Can we start yet?" the Raticate asked curiously too.

"Just give us a moment, friend!"

The Swadloon, safe in its cocoon, stared at the Raticate with intent. It was trying to figure out what they were asking, until it nervously gave another response. "It has a tail, teeth, and fluffy?"

"Yeessss. Different Pokemon looks differently. Some have tougher looking teeth and some looked like they're not threatening. Each and every Pokemon protect themselves differently, so for this Raticate fella, there's a chance it would use its strong teeth to attack, and if it's a not threatening looking fella, maybe it would use their special powers." The Swalot commented, gleeful at the Swadloon's observation.

"Alright, lesson's over. Let's do our battle now, shall we?" Ratz squeaked, and prepared for an attack.

"Finally. Alright, I won't hold back. Watch and learn, kid!" the other Raticate responded, teasingly.

OOC:
Swadloon leads then Toxic Orb Guts Raticate switch in and use Facade
